The power of attunement

Advanced yoga practitioners appear to have more power over their minds and bodies than the rest of the world, which they attribute to the enormous amount of time they spend developing their minds.For example, The Dalai Lama, a revered Buddhist monk and spiritual leader, is known for his extraordinary abilities, including his ability to pay full attention to everyone he meets.

He meets several people daily, and his observers have described that he engages and gives complete attention in every social interaction. For this reason, a conversation with him is usually unique and memorable.In our daily interactions, people hardly pay close attention to each other. Many people find it hard to connect emotionally and mentally with others.Social-emotional attunement is the ability to build deep bonds, experience empathy, and harmonize with your feelings and others. It is what truly makes another person feel engaged. Attunement is essential in life; it is the key to building successful organizations and creating high-performance teams. It is also important for child-rearing and basically anything that involves relating with others.This summary will help you develop skills to strengthen your capacity for attunement. Follow along to learn how to prevent social media from distracting you and strategies for sharpening your listening skills.
